We've done this topic before. In my opinion, The Dick Van Dyke Show never jumped the shark. There are one or two episodes that are not my favorite, as Larry mentioned, but they didn't ruin the whole show. M*A*S*H, in my opinion, jumped the shark big time. If you go to the M*A*S*H message board on this site and look up this topic on past posts, opinion varies as to when in actually jumped, but there is no dispute that it did. The reason TDVDS still remains popular today, even with people of your generation, is because it never Jumped the Shark!
